THE STORY OF WEARDALE RAILWAY
Weardale Railway was once a part of the historic Stockton and Darlington line with a terminus at Wearhead. Weardale Railways CIC owns 16 miles of track between Bishop Auckland and Eastgate in Weardale, County Durham. Weardale is a beautiful area, much of which falls within the North Pennies AONB, and is a fantastic place for outdoor pursuits including walking, cycling, and watching the local wildlife. Our railway currently runs between Witton-le-Wear and Stanhope Station, nestled in beautiful Stanhope. Join us for a scenic ride on this historic railway today!
